Hi all~~

What you doing up so early Maz..?.lol... It's not a school day. !!
I was up at 7, but can't go on puter til hubby gets' up as mine is in the bedroom.
When we were with my brother in law staying I was using hubby's lappy and was on by 7 as I knew we'd be going out for the rest of the day:)
I managed to cold wash my car with a brush yesterday, it's not perfect but doesn't look like something that has been rallying !

eeh, $andie our car always looks like its been rallying because our back street is just dirt.....mud in winter and clouds of dust in summer lol.The pot holes do serious damage but the council won't adopt it unless we pay to have it properly" tarmacced " and street lighting put in which we cant possibly afford.Hope Rose pops back,it's nice to have a new friend joining in.

good evening,been another mixed up day weather wise.Alternating between sunshine and clouds so dense we were sure the heavens were going to open but no it has stayed dry.
Been to visit my mam-in-law and catch up on all the family news although she is very deaf so sometimes conversation doesn't make sense lol
I love her to bits though.She loves to reminisce and I like to hear her tales so all in all was a lovely afternoon.

We've had rain, been a bit of a miserable day weather wise.
Iron*d my hubby's 5 shirts for the week, and my jeans, I'm into a size 10 now.
Fortunately the top hasn't dropped in size, gone south tho !!

Hi all ~~

Lol Paula I think it's just the sizing the manufactures put on them, tho all my size 12 trousers and jeans are too big. I'm 9 st and wear a 12 or 14 top.
When I got married I was 8 st 7 and wore size 14 trousers and 12 top ??!!
I do a lot of walking so have lost weight off my hips, could do with a tummy tuck tho !..:)

I washed a few linefuls on Sat so not doing any today.

Went to tax my car and found that the MOT is up today !!
Just as well we get on well with our local garage , I said 'book me in for Wed' when I got home I realized it was up today so he's doing it this afternoon.
Don't want to get caught out by these ANP police cameras !
They are like flies around here:((

I went to Slimming World back in 1998 and was13st 4, I'm 5ft 4 and got down to 9st 4 then.
I went back up a bit to 10st, but due to my cholesterol being about 6 I've changed my eating habits, not really fussy on meat anyway, so I've slowly dropped to 9st:))
I'm now lower in weight than my sister, she was always skinnier than me!
Trouble is I have to buy all new trousers and Jeans.
I tried things on for my auntie Cein's 90 birthday do and all my smart trousers were hanging off me... one big rush to get something to fit !!
I don't like sweet things anyway,and have only changed my eating habits for health reasons.
My blood pressure was 120/ 70 today, which I was pleased about cos my mum suffered with high blood pressure and had several strokes and heart attacks. Mine is the same now as when I had my dau 24 yrs ago.
All my A. Cein's children who are 2 yrs and 6 yrs older than me have suffered with high blood pressure for many yrs.
I gave blood regularly and have my silver badge, so it was always checked on those occasions.
Would have been more than 25 except you cannot donate when you are pregnant or for a yr after, and I've given up now.:(
Must do more walking tho, don't have a dog any more so I must offer my services for dog walking again.
I walked my neighbours dog when he had an op on his foot, and loads of neighbours have offered to walk an 86 yr old's Alsation , she has severe arthritis, but he will not go with any one.
Would love to have one of my own again, but hubby isn't keen:((
Nite all
luv

Hi all~~

When I rechecked my MOT it was up on the 26 of March not April!!!!
I've been driving around for a month with no MOT or tax , I can't believe it... what if I'd been stopped by the police> Wow.
Sorry officer I got the month wrong is no excuse!
All done and dusted now thank goodness:)
Have you had hip replacement Maz? If so (i think you're a bit younger than me ) it's an early age to have it done!
